Introduction: Knee joints are commonly involved with various inflammatory and non- inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Radiosynovectomy is being used as a local therapeutic option to alleviate pain and swelling in involved joints. The present study evaluated the effectiveness of radiosynovectomy for treatment of chronic knee synovitis. Methods: Through a search of Medline and SCOPUS with (Radiosy...

  Introduction: Radio-guided parathyroid surgery along with other minimally invasive surgeries constitutes the main surgical treatment procedures for different kinds of hyperparathyroidism.  In this article we have reported our experience of radio-guided parathyroid surgery using Tc-99m sestamibi. Methods: Ten patients with hyperparathyroidism included in our study. ...

abstract purpose of this paper: the purpose of this article is to review some of the most prominent applications of rfid in industries and to provide a comprehensive review of the work done from 1985 through 2007 and the research trend on that. the effectiveness of rfid and the challenges that it is facing with are also discussed. some applications of radio frequency identification in supply ch...

Radio relics are giant ($\sim$Mpc) synchrotron sources that believed to be produced by the (re)acceleration of cosmic-ray electrons (CRe) shocks in intracluster medium. In this numerical study, we focus on possibility some radio may arise when undergo diffusive shock acceleration at multiple outskirts merging galaxy clusters. This multi-shock (MS) scenario appears viable produce CRe emit visibl...

Software Defined Radio (SDR) and Cognitive Radio (CR) are fast technologies, which can be used to reduce the spectrum shortage problem. The modern software defined radio has been called the heart of a cognitive radio. The applications executing on the radio differentiate a cognitive radio from a software-defined radio. Additional hardware in the form of sensors and actuators increases the more ...

Objective(s): Taking advantage of high atomic number of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in radiation dose absorbing, many in vitro and in vivo studies have been carried out on using them as radio-sensitizer. In spite of noticeable dose enhancement by GNPs at keV energies, using this energy range for radiotherapy of deep-seated tumors is outdated. The aim of the present work was to examine the effect ...
